lyrics

how we gonna keep you from yourself?
how we gonna keep you from your
keep you from yourself?

the day you see your clothes are wearing you
Mistaking treading lightly now, for just sailing right through

when days rise like smoke and shatter at the gate cos not even your nightmares hope to set your tiller straight

When you hear the river talking
And it’s not talking in code
It just wants what it is owed
Flowing in the way the mouths all open and close 
as the infrastructure glows

 you might wake and feel the fell of dark not day if the ocean wasn’t bottomless you’d push the boat away

 but you woke up clutching scissors like a rose
And thought of what you’re wearing  when they cut us from our clothes

when you go down to the river  and the river says, “well, well well; you are talking to yourself”
 some things will erode and others  deepen like a shelf
 they’re all bluffs or they are tells 
listen to the  water lapping on the shells  
how we gonna keep you from yourself?

Contested Mark

Such a heavy and alluring vibe from the get-go. that repetitive note all through the first track keeps me on my toes, and the beautiful synth chords just weave in softly. Would the genre be No Wave Casio Country? It's funny then devastating then back again. I don't think I've heard anything like this before, it's such obscure beautiful absurd album!! Ricardo Potoroo

I have listened to this album ALOT this year, at home in the studio and in my shop. Gently nostalgic and transportive, it has beautiful timing in each song and I usually listen to the alb more than twice each time I play it. HUGE FAN GIRL. eurosavage
